I LIKE CHEAP STUFF.....
I'm looking at installing a "cheap" audio system on my new rig and have some questions. Also thought this thread could be used for you guys to post pics and/or info about your audio systems on your rigs to help myself and others who are studying on the best audio setup for thier rig.
There is no radio in my rig at all or speakers. It'd be nice to have a secure dry mount for a Pioneer head unit so I could play cd's and have the MP3 port or USB port also, but I'm looking at just doing something to where all I will have is an MP3 plug run out of the dash somewhere to plug my phone or an MP3 player in to use.
I've done several audio systems in my daily drivers over the years, but don't know much about these MP3 amplifiers and have been searching through what's out there in the marine/atv audio market to see the best way to go about this. I have 2 6x9 boxes with Planet Audio 3 way speakers in them that I took out of the Tacoma and plan to use them until I decide to drop the coin on wake tower speakers or another route, so speakers aren't an issue here. I'm also well aware that you could spend a good chunk of change and get the best of the best of the best that's out there, but I don't give a **** about spending in the upwards of $500 on audio **** right now, I had rather put that money toward wiring my shop up if I was to drop that kind of coin on something right now. Just curious how these MP3 amplifiers work.
I'm wondering about this little unit here. Doesn't necessarrily have to be this exact one or brand, just want to clarify how it works.

So if I was to buy this, I would wire it up just like a regular amp that you would use to push subs with, run the speaker wires to the speakers I plan to use, and instead of RCA cables running to a head unit (cd player) it would be that RCA to MP3 plug that's also included in the listing running straight to my MP3 player and everything work like normal? Any cons to this setup? Also is there any other ways or equipment you guys use to wire up audio systems in your rigs that don't have oem systems?
Thanks in advance and post up some pics or specs of your ****! Always good to hear first person reviews of what speakers sound good or what speakers you may have wasted your money on that sounded like **** or didn't last long.
